Is it just me or is it hard to part with small scraps of fabric? I never know what to do with them, they're difficult to store and yet I can't let go. I keep telling myself, "I'll need this for something". And if I dare throw it out, oh the guilt, the horrible guilt. Well, after a little brainstorming I came up with using the fabric scraps for gift tags. They're quick, easy and inexpensive to make.Simple directions below.
Here's what a basic shipping tag looks like. They come in an assortment of sizes. You can find them at office supply stores.
Cut a small piece of fabric with pinking shears. Hand sew fabric onto tag.
Write or stamp a message inside. Done.

Very cute idea. I'm another hoarder...
total small scrap hoarder here. in fact, I have boxes of them. thank you...i can't wait to see these in action on some real presents.
These tags would have been so cute, even without the hidden message.
But that part just ups the awesomeness factor by 10!
That is a wonderful idea! I have so many cute mini-scraps that I can't bear to let go of...but for a cute tag? Certainly!
I like your spoon! ;)
